Title: exim – Permission denied
Post by: Dipak Bhoi on April 27, 2015, 12:29:15 PM
Hello folks,

One of our client was facing an issue while sending an email, after checking the mail logs in /var/log/exim_mainlog. There were an error like as below:

Date H=(xxxx-xxx-xxx-xx-xx-com) [xx.xx.xx.xx]:xxxxxF= temporarily rejected RCPT : require_files: error for /home/username/etc/domain.com: Permission denied

This issue occurred when there is an ownership or permission changed for the mailbox.

Solution ::

Run mailperm scripts to reset the permissions or ownership.

Quote#/scripts/mailperm username

That's all, and emails will work fine.
